30 Parr Brown Attorneys Selected for Inclusion in 2011 Mountain States Super Lawyers

The law firm of Parr Brown Gee & Loveless is pleased to announce that thirty attorneys have been selected for inclusion in 2011 Mountain States Super Lawyers.  Seven attorneys were listed in the “Top 75” – a listing of lawyers who received the highest point totals in the Mountain States Super Lawyers 2011 nomination, research and blue-ribbon review process.

The selections for this esteemed list are made by the research team at Super Lawyers, a Thomson Reuters Service.  Each year, the research team undertakes a rigorous multi-phase selection process that includes a statewide survey of lawyers, independent evaluation of candidates by attorney-led research staff, a peer review of candidates by practice area, and a good-standing and disciplinary check.  The selection process for Rising Stars is the same as the Super Lawyers selection process except that: 1) to be eligible for inclusion in Rising Stars, a candidate must be either 40 years old or younger or in practice for ten years or less; and 2) Candidates for Rising Stars do not go through step three above—peer evaluation by practice area. While up to five percent of the lawyers in the state are named to Super Lawyers, no more than 2.5 percent are named to the Rising Stars list. We are pleased to announce the following Parr Brown attorneys included in the 2011 edition: Super Lawyers
